The ones on the left that look normal are doing fine. They are probably about 3 weeks from when they germinated. The one on the right just has the cots and never developed any true leaves. The one in the middle looks like a "twin" leaf with no place for a growing tip. It just keeps getting a thicker stem but does not grow or develop any new leaves. Neither one of those 2 will grow into a plant. Very odd.
I started 5 or 6 seeds each of 50 varieties. I had 2 varieties with zero germination. On the rest I had over 90% germination so I don't think it is me causing the problem. I will be giving away lots of tomato plants since that is way more than I have room for.
The Al-Kuffa is one I wanted because it is a dwarf to plant at my mother-in-law's. I will plant 2 at my mother-in-laws and keep 2 for myself and save seed.
